Distances can be measured at any time, and can be measured out in different increments, so long as the total does not exceed the specified distance. Multiple combat gauge distances will be specified with a numerical value, e.g. In either case, the final configuration of operatives must conform to the requirements laid out by that Kill Team.Īny distances of a symbol without a numerical value correspond to one combat gauge, e.g. Others will allow you to select your own configuration of operatives (with restrictions). Some Kill Teams will specify the exact configuration of operatives it consists of. When you do, you must select one of the Kill Teams from your faction’s army list, then select the operatives as specified by that Kill Team. Once you have selected your way to play, its mission sequence will tell you when you must select a Kill Team for a battle. In battle, all your friendly operatives are collectively referred to as your Kill Team. A list of the Kill Teams available to you can be found in your faction’s army list. When you select your operatives for a battle, you are not selecting individuals, but rather a specialist squad that works together.
Your operatives are known as ‘friendly’ operatives and your opponent’s operatives are known as ‘enemy’ operatives. The Citadel miniatures that a player uses in Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team are known as operatives.
